Wow. I slept like a brick!

I don't think I've slept that soundly in a LONG time. I went to sleep after 1, and woke up about 10:30. I vaguely remember waking up and going potty once. I usually sleep fitfully and am up and down all night long, but I actually rested! I feel so much better already.

Even with Jessica (17) in the other bed snoring and snorting like a pig...she's all sick and congested. (I'm gonna get me some airborne stuff today so I don't get sick while sharing a room with her.

Thank you Jesus for this time away and a great nights sleep!
Have you slapped that one dude from Indiana with a pie in the face today?

Broadcasting live from the church sound booth.  This funeral seems a bit better planned than the last one we did here. 

Gonna be a looooooooooong day.   And in sharp contrast to all last week, this doesn't look like a fun one.  I feel sorry for these people.  Christmas time is going to be marred for a long time to come for them.  And there's nothing I can do about it.

I got a buttermilk pie!  :D :D :D

I love it when there are leftovers at church.

Currently tucked in bed eating leftover Japanese and watching Firefly. It's my last day/night housesitting then it's off to Morristown tomorrow. We had our Christmas yesterday. Mom bought me some really nice clothes and lots of cheesey Green Bay Packers gear (official Cheesehead included). I asked her if this meant next year I was getting a trip to Lambeau Field.

Also mom gave me awesome gel stuff for my neck and its finally bearable.

Hope everyone has an awesome, blessed Christmas tomorrow!!

Now I am disgruntled.  There is no more boiled custard at the store.  They got three cases in this morning, and now they are out again, and that's it for the whole year. 

But I happened to see something I had never before seen on the store shelves - Borden's dutch chocolate milk - and I recall a friend saying it was very good, so I tried it.  And it was.

Poor Isaac. I wish there had been more boiled custard so you could be gruntled.  :P
I made it through my day....now I'm off 'til Sunday.  :clap2: On a not so positive note, they are predicting up to 5 inches of snow tomorrow and tomorrow night. If we've gotta get that nasty white stuff, why can't it come on a work day and give me a reason to call in?!? It ain't fair to come in on my day off. :fire:
Talk about exactly wrong on the timing- and it ain't gonna get here until the evening time, so I can't even use it for an excuse to avoid the in-laws.  :pound:

Roscoe:  You don't like your in-laws? 

Your comment about the snow reminds me of a Calvin & Hobbes comic where Calvin was sick in the summer.  "But I'm not getting to miss any school, I can't be sick on summer vacation... Somebody owes me big for this!"

Quite the opposite, Isaac. I'm just a weirdo....I get VERY uncomfortable around more than just a handful of people. Never have a problem around church, but in close quarters I am as uncomfortable as a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs.
My inlaws are terrific people, but I don't have alot in common with most of them- if you don't talk NASCAR, hunting, or dirt track racing, you are out of the conversation, and I don't hunt, dirt track and hate Nascar....
Between these two reasons, I'd much rather be at home.  :smirk2:

I found the secret to that kind of thing.  I just sit and listen.  Nobody notices, as they are intent on their own conversations, and I can pick up a lot of useful, or sometimes useless, information. 

Or sometimes I just sit and think my own thoughts and let the conversation flow on around me.  But don't tell them that.  :P

I was going to say just sit and don't say anything, it's what I do.  :smirk2:  What I did at my nephew's today. 

Home from there after the bit of running about. 

Dad acted like he was going to go till time to go, then said he wasn't.  That it was too late to go.  It was a little before noon when we left home.  1:30 when we got up there.  My sister and niece and her husband didn't even get up there till like 3.  Poor dad is just a strange old soul.

Looks like a quiet Christmas day here.  We're not having the family Christmas get-together until New Year's  day because some of my family has the flu, and my uncle's mother is in the hospital.  Grandma says she could use a quiet day to rest.  After the last nine days, so could I.  But it's been a lot of fun. 

What *I'm* looking forward to is tomorrow.  :D  I can get twice as much Delacre and Royal Dansk when it's half price.   :clap:

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! I hope it is wonderful for all of you.
My sister is coming over in a few minutes and we are goig to have a big Christmas breakfast. She's promised to teach me how to make my Mama's Buttermilk biscuits, which is something I have never mastered. I can't wait!
Buttermilk biscuits, ham, scrambled eggs, sausage gravy with tons of sausage, hash browns....mmmm. And as an extra treat, my mama's homemade "chocolate biscuits".  :clap2:

No, the biscuit itself is not chocolate. It is something my mama created long ago for us kids and the family loved them. She took biscuit dough-homemade of course- spread it out a bit, put a mixture of cocoa and sugar  on it, and folded it on itself, and dabbed the top with a bit of butter. Baked it like normal. They come out hot and golden with a chocolaty river inside. We had bags of these in the fridge all the time when I was a wee lad- they were our snack. I've never saw anyone else make them and long for them all the time...

Made it to my families. At least they've fed me breakfast this time. 1 meal is better than none!! They are all currently fawning over Paige and her boyfriend. Ugh.

Anyway, MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!

It's (munch) Christmas.  Yay!  (burp)

We didn't have a traditional family Christmas, but we did have breakfast up at uncle Fred's, and Sis. Jackson came.  I got a head start - since a bit after 6am I've been munching on the dark chocolate/oatmeal cookies Grandma made me for Christmas.

Let me know when you have a bag of them in your fridge...its only a mere 3 hours 15 minutes over to your place.

I'd prefer the visit.  :hypocrite:
And something is wrong. I ordered sunny and 70 degree weather. Instead it's hoovering around or below freezing, and the wind is blowing nonestop. The Weather service just advised that my area- Central Arkansas, NOT North Dakota- is under a flowerin' BLIZZARD warning, and to expect from 6 inches up to a FOOT of snow. I am not amused.
And figuring it would be, as usual, a none-event, I didn't buy any propane. If the power goes out, I'll be cuddling under blankets.  :mad:

Could be worse.  Chel reports snow, ice and tornado... and she's at work.  I questioned that - snow and ice usually go together, but I'm not accustomed to seeing "tornado" in conjunction with those.  Yahoo news just had a report about it too.

Tornadoes?  On Christmas day?
